Observation of plastic ice VII by quasi-elastic neutron scattering. [PDF]
NatureAbstract Water is the third most abundant molecule in the universe and a key component in the interiors of icy moons, giant planets and Uranus- and Neptune-like exoplanets1–3. Owing to its distinct molecular structure and flexible hydrogen bonds that readily adapt to a wide range of pressures and temperatures, water forms numerous crystalline

Non-reciprocal spin excitations across the skyrmion-paramagnetic phase transition in MnSi. [PDF]
J Appl CrystallogrInelastic neutron scattering shows that the non‐reciprocal nature of the magnons in the skyrmion phase of MnSi is maintained for high temperatures well beyond the skyrmion–paramagnetic phase transition.The magnetic excitations of the skyrmion lattice in MnSi comprise a multitude of individual modes, which are non‐reciprocal and thereby propagate ...

On the Ordering Mechanism of Cu<sup>+</sup> in 2D van der Waals Multiferroic CuCrP<sub>2</sub>S<sub>6</sub>. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)Temperature‐dependent X‐ray single‐crystal diffuse scattering measurements of CuCrP2S6 in the (H, K, 0) plane reveal the gradual emergence and strengthening of short‐range order upon cooling from 230 to 170 K. At intermediate temperatures, diffuse features become pronounced and eventually lock into sharp incommensurate satellite reflections, indicating

Probing the dynamics of biological matter by elastic, quasi-elastic, and inelastic neutron scattering [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2020 The so-called function-structure-dynamics paradigm established that a close relationship links the way biological molecules work (function), their 3-dimensional organization (structure) and the changes of this organization in time (dynamics), which ...

Quasi-Elastic Neutron Scattering Investigation of Dynamics in Polymer Electrolytes [PDF]
Macromolecules, 2004 Polymer dynamics in a crosslinked poly(ethylene oxide-propylene oxide) random copolymer, both neat and doped with an inorganic salt, is investigated by means of quasi elastic neutron scattering (QENS) as a function of temperature and momentum transfer. Data from two backscattering instruments with complementary resolution and setup are reported.
